This is a rare glimpse of those relentlessly black&white Bowery Boys in color! With the exception of those oddest of film oddities of the 1960's, SECOND FIDDLE TO A STEEL GUITAR (1965) and THE PHYNX (1969), this is your only chance to catch LEO GORCEY and HUNTZ HALL together in color -- and as relative youths at the beginning of their film tenures yet! Here LEO & HUNTZ make a brief cameo appearance in a color short subject that was lensed concurrent with the filming of CRIME SCHOOL in 1938. Along with fellow Dead-Enders BILLY HALOP and BOBBY JORDAN, they can be briefly glimpsed slurping soup and terrorizing the patrons of the studio commissary with their less-than-genteel manners. Luckily for the waitresses in attendance, HUMPHREY BOGART is on hand to keep them in line!
You can see all my Bowery Boys videos at http://bowery-bijou.blogspot.com/
Unfortunately, We will never see the Bowery boys on DVD or anywhere else....unless they bring back the reruns on TV. It's been a long time, but I read somewhere that they refused to release the films. There were over 50 films of the "Bowery Boys" too. However, You can get a few on VHS at Amazon but the rest are "East Side Kids".

Cool color footage! THANKS for sharing! Until now, I had only seen Bogie in color as early as 1951, when he appeared in his Oscar-winning role in "The African Queen'.

Hold on here. This is colorized. I'd spot those Necco Wafer tones anywhere.

Ronald Regan, Lauren Bacall, Bing Crosby and many more.
